I would recommend his piano concertos. If you ever have an opportunity to hear one performed live, your life and soul will be changed. For an upbeat and fun listening, try the Copland Clarinet Concerto. (I am a doctoral student at the UMKC Conservatory and will stop now before I go on and on ...)

Bach in general, Vivaldi in general, especially the Oboe Concerto in C major - I played oboe, and while it tends to be a more brooding instrument, it can be joyful, too, and this is a fine piece for it. Handel in general, especially the delightful Sarabande.Todd the Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14066551461525219357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487945587083638331.post-80641907030100645122012-01-17T18:01:30.763-06:002012-01-17T18:01:30.763-06:00Go to a house of Edward and read a quieter palette...Go to a house of Edward and read a quieter palette.
